Getting closer.  :-)  I copied the articles to groups test8 and
test9 (with `B c') and have attached the files below.

Here are various things that seem odd:

o The number of lines in the non-empty article got changed from 3
  to 1 when the move is done.  What is the correct way to count
  lines in an article?

o The number of lines in the empty article is calculated as 1
  (both before and after the move).  Is this correct?

o The Xref lines are different for the two articles.  One is
  self-referential, and the other points back to my Inbox.
  I think the latter is correct, right?

o On the short article, if display the full headers by
  hitting `t', everything looks ok except that I get two
  headers combined on one line:

Mbox format sure is awkward...
